Wedding Table Vignettes

Tuesday, September 25, 2012

One of my nephews got married this past Saturday. It was a beautiful day! I didn't take a lot of pictures but thought I'd show you their cute table decorations.

The bride used old books covered in brown and pretty papers, vintage white vases with casual arrangements of wild flowers, and votive candles. Some tables had large sunflowers, but I didn't get a good picture of them.

She added the "titles" by printing out the text (mirror image) from the computer on wax paper that was glued to regular paper, then wet the ink, and rubbed it on the book cover.

Cute, huh?

I thought the white daisy stamped on the burlap table mat was perfect.

Here's my 7 y/o with her new "hair bow" that her big sister put in for her. Perfect wedding hair. It was so cute! My daughter had seen a tutorial somewhere online.

These are so lovely! I do wish more people would put more thought into their decorations instead of resorting to mirrors and balloons and mylar confetti. So much more thoughtful and pertinent to the couple than the standard stuff.

Brilliant idea recovering old books! For a minute I thought you had gone into the wedding styling business since your daughter's wedding was such a successful venture. ha! Your nephew's wedding looks like it was a beautiful event (a very creative bride he's got!) Your daughter's "hair" bow is adorable. Aren't big sisters the best?
